Purpose

Abundent Academy respects our Content Providers, instructors, users, and other third-party intellectual property rights, and we expect our users to do the same when using the Services. Users who consistently infringe or are accused of infringing on others copyrights, trademarks, or other intellectual property rights may have their accounts suspended, disabled, or terminated. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you would like to read the DMCA, please visit the U.S. Copyright Office website at http://www.copyright.gov/legislation/dmca.pdf.

Copyright Takedown Notices

When content is notified as infringing in a copyright takedown notice received from the owner of the original content, Abundent Academy’s policy is to remove it from our service. We also have a policy of removing all content from instructors who have been found to be repeat infringers (for whom Abundent Academy has received more than two valid copyright takedown notices). We reserve the right to cancel an instructor’s account at any time, including if they submit content that violates other people’s copyrights.

Counter Notification

If we get a legitimate copyright takedown notice, we’ll send a copy to the instructor who posted the reported content, along with notices that: (1) the content was reported for copyright infringement, and (2) we’re removing it from the Abundent Academy platform. We’ll also include a form for the instructor to complete and return to us in order to file a counter-notification. You may email us a counter-notification if your content has been reported for copyright infringement and deleted from the Abundent Academy platform, and you believe we made a mistake or that you have permission to use the reported content from the owner.

Trademark Takedown Notices

When content is reported and proven to be infringing on a third-party trademark, Abundent Academy’s policy is to remove it from our site. You can send trademark takedown notices to Abundent Academy if you’re a trademark owner or a trademark owner’s authorized agent. Abundent Academy has the right to suspend or delete an instructor’s account at any time, including if they submit anything that infringes on another’s trademark rights.

Third Party Platform

We recognize that when you publish and make your content public on the Abundent Academy platform, you want to ensure that it won’t be available on another network without your consent. To combat copyright infringement and piracy in our instructors’ courses, we’ve worked with an anti-piracy vendor to look for instances of infringement and have them removed from most major search engines to prevent future traffic.
